Gibbs A, Naudts K, Spencer E, David A
Am J Psychiatry . 2007 Sep; 164(10):1603-9. PMID: 17898353
Objective: Cognitive models suggest that biased processing of emotional information may play a role in the genesis and maintenance of psychotic symptoms. The role of dopamine and dopamine antagonists in...
